Is this your family in 1911??

If so, it does seem to be the guy who got his Naturalization in 1897, not 1891 as you think.

Who told you it was 1891??

Ann as part of the address line is missing I can't tell what I'm looking for and when I go to the St Leonards Housing it all seems too recent.

DET - Not sure, my information is that he was naturalised in 1891 and this is 6 years later. Would it take that long for it to be on a certificate?

Thanks Ann
I've got most of the UK info but I'm struggling to find out exactly when John Scholer arrived and where from. He was naturalised British in 1891 so I guess I need to track down that record as it should have a bit of information. Then it's on to Charlotte/Agnes whose roots I think are in Dublin...

The problem with Germany is that for earlier records, there is no central listing for BMD. You'd need to contact each State archive to request a search.
The links from Cyndislist given earlier explains the proceedure. The problem you appear to have is that you don't know whereabouts your family originated.

How about making contact with an Anglo-German FHS? They are likely to be more familiar with the difficulties and might have alternative suggestions.
If your German ancestors were Jewish, then other data bases are available
